Romano replaces Nalia as new chair of EMU Board By Julie Freeman Of I ho Kmorald laure Komnno replaced Mark Nalia u (he ac ting Hummer chair of the EMU Hoard in a 5-4 vote Tuesday after several board members expressed dissatisfaction with how Naliu was appointed to the position. "I don’t think that most of the people on the board knew how Mark was elected,” said Cindi Kim. a new board member who nominated Romano for the position. Nalia. who was selected to serve as the in terim chair last spring by the 1H84-85 board said that ho was totally surprised by Tuesday's deci sion He served as the board's chair last year and during the summer of 1984. Romano, co-director of the Women’s Resource and ReferralServlce and a new member of the board, said that she was not surprised by her election at all. "The general feeling of'the new members was that we wanted to be able to elect the new chair," Romano said. "I knew beforehand that I would probably be nominated." she said. • . During the meeting. Nalia said that he did nqt ape his summer chair position as a confronta tion between the now members of the l>uard and the old members, who appointed him. ".1 wish that then? would have been more in put.on this issue before this time," Nalia added before, the motion to elect Romano was passed. In other business, the board discussed revok ing the office space allocated to five groups last year, The groups indicated were Forensics, Students for a Progressive Agenda, Muslim Students Society. Catalyst Films, and Women in Communications. After a debate concerning the failure of the board to notify these groups of Tuesday's meeting, the board decided to table the discus sion of this issue until the next meeting when the various groups involved could be informed of the proceedings. The board did decide, however, to revoke the space allocated to Forensics by a 7-1 vote. "The question here is not whether these groups are worthwhile," said Karen Gaffney, a board member who distributed a memo to these groups in June informing them that they faced revocation of their office space. The real question is whether they really need or use their office space, Gaffney said. The board then heard from Adell McMillan, > director of the EMU, who reported that the EMtJ has been given the go-ahead by the University Planning Office to draw up plans to turn .the building's east bowling alleys into a new; com puter center. The funding request for the new-center will be brought before the State Board of Higher Education, at the next meeting, .McMillan said-. . Bui. she said she hopes to accept bids for the renovation' job by the -beginning of September. » IFG funds student trip to .
